Recipe: Spicy garlicky roast vegetable wraps

These garlicky roast vegetable wraps are really quick and easy to pull together. The filling is a spin on the Lebanese batata harra! They’re quite spicy, but you can adjust the amount of green chilli and chilli flakes you use, to suit your taste. The cucumber raita balances out most of the spice!

What you need

  • Roasted red pepper hummus

  • Tortillas

  • 1 small cauliflower head, broken up into florets

  • 1 large potato, peeled and cut into bite sized pieces

  • 1/2 large aubergine, cut into bite sized pieces

  • 10-12 cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 6-7 garlic cloves, sliced

  • 2 green chillies, chopped fine

  • handful of coriander, finely chopped

  • handful of parsley, torn

  • 1 tsp chilli flakes

  • 1 cup greek yogurt

  • 1 small cucumber

  • vegetable oil

  • salt and pepper

What you do

  1. Place the potatoes, cauliflower, aubergine and cherry tomatoes in a roasting tin, drizzle with oil, season, and pop into the oven at 180C (fan) for 30-40 mins, until the vegetables are tender and browned

  2. In the meantime, grate the cucumber and add to the yogurt with a pinch of salt and pepper, and mix well. This is your raita

  3. When the vegetables are roasted, heat a heavy bottomed pan with 2 tbsp of oil. When hot, add the sliced garlic and fry until brown

  4. Then the green chillies and fry for a few seconds

  5. Then the roast veggies and chilli flakes, and toss it all together

  6. Then the coriander and parsley and toss it well. May need to mix through with a spatula. That’s your filling ready

  7. Now warm the tortillas for 3 minutes in the oven

  8. Spread with hummus, top with veggies, spoon over the raita

That’s it! Roll up, and chomp. Napkins at the ready :D
